It's Almost Time :]

I decided to wait till the night before i left for camp to write again. So I'm obviously going to write about camp since i am leaving tomorrow and i will have no way to write for 3 days, well 2 if i decide to write the day i come back. I am STILL upset that camp is only 3 days long, but it'll all be OK I'm hoping. Since the campsite is closer then normal we will get there earlier and hopefully get to do just as many things, maybe not as many extra activities or free time but I'm guessing it will all work out. I finally got my secret sister gifts today after a failed attempt to get my permit. We drove to the license place and we walk up to the door only to find that they were closed for some holiday that i had never heard of in my life. Leave it up to government run offices to ruin my good mood. I have been waiting for almost a month now to get it, and now i wont be able to until Thursday night or Friday morning. Things never really seem to work out for me the first time...i was talking about my secret sister OK sorry. So anyway i went and got my gifts today i like them all, so I'm hoping that whoever becomes my secret sister will like them too. I only got 3 though (normally you get 4) cause i didn't know how they were doing things this time around. I'm actually kinda interested now that i keep thinking about it we will only be there for 2 nights and the last night of camp we always have a testimony meeting. I'm actually kinda getting a headache from thinking about how its all going to work. I don't even really know why I'm worrying about it I'm not in charge, and I'm not a YL so why in the world am I worried?!?! Ive noticed (along with my ADDish characteristics) that i get worried about things i really shouldn't. Well its more of an extreme thinking stage then worrying. I think of all the ups and downs then i tend to focus on the downs. I never really saw myself as a pessimistic person but that doesn't really support that I'm not. If you know me you know I'm not like that though I'm always saying "look on the bright side", "it could have been worse if..." or "At least...(insert bad event) didn't happen to you." I Really should be trying to help the people I'm saying that about rather then make my life seem easier compared to theirs. How did i start talking about this? i was talking about camp... hahaha oh well. I finished packing my stuff today too. I never start packing till the night before though. i packed more then enough clothes i only really needed to pack 3 outfits but i packed 6 just in case. i know I'm a little OVER packed but i always do, its just me. id rather have enough clothes then not have enough and have to wear something Ive already worn because i get thrown in a lake...cause iv had that happen. Last year i was given the man over bored award because Sara Howard and I got tipped over in the boat by some people swimming in the lake. That was not a very fun experience ill tell you that. So as far as i go, I'm not going near any lakes this summer. no way Jose! For the next 3 days its going to be just my sister and my mom till 4 in the afternoons. Ethan and Dylan are going to a day cub scout camp and Blake is at scout camp until Saturday. So we get to live Blake free for one week and i get to be family free for 3 days:] i admit i do get a teensy weensy homesick but i like the freedom. Well the freedom from the chaos at home i mean. I always like going to girls camp. i just like the fact that I'm around people who have the same standards as me and i don't have to explain everything about the church because they already know!:] oh the joys of church camps. For no real reason that makes me think to talk about this. Has anyone ever noticed that guys deodorant works better and longer then girls? well i have and now i wear men's deodorant. Its kinda cool actually cause now when i think i smell someone good i realize its me hahaa. Man I'm a dork. I know i started out talking about girls camp, how in the world did i end up on men's deodorant? My brain and how it functions is very complex obviously. Either that or I'm very scatter brained all the time. I guess most teenagers are though. The scatter brain part. Well its 11 48 and i have to get up at 6 sooo i guess ill end this here and i will definitely have some exciting stories when i get back from camp. ;]
